Retail
13th and U St, NW
From the owner:
“Rosies and Rockers sign gets vandalized, because spray painting over a small businesses sign brings justice I guess!”
3700 block Georgia Ave, NW
Looks like that blue tape was legit. Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbins coming soon signs now posted at Georgia and Quincy St, NW in the Park Place retail space just north of the Petworth metro exit”
Wells Fargo too – a bitter further south toward New Hampshire Ave:

“Dear PoPville,
I was walking on P Street NW between 15th and 14th and noticed that in the last few days the window coverings have been taken off the old Logan Hardware and a new office of some sorts has opened and a full renovation has taken place. However, there is NO sign. Do you know what has taken over the space? And why it isn’t some type of retail or something?”
Ed. Note: The new Logan Hardware is now open at 1734 14th Street, NW.
Others obviously disagree. Thanks to Ken for sending a photo of the scene at Rise Bakery Saturday morning.

Here’s a rendering:

Back in March we noted that Capitol Hill Sporting was going out of business on Barracks Row. Back in 2010 there were plans to convert this space into a bar and grill. Updates when we learn who leases the space.
There’s now a for lease sign on the building and a serious liquidation sale:
